Congratulations to our orthopaedic team at Yeovil Hospital who have successfully implemented their โsix in sixโ initiative which sees them aim to complete six joint replacements in a day by 6pm. Patients can now benefit from shorter wait times and more efficient care๐๐

The Horizon Centre has been transformed thanks to new artwork from Kate Bond and our amazing Art for Life team. Taking inspiration from CAMHS service user Willow, the space is now more welcoming, helping make mental health services more approachable for children in Somerset๐

Thanks to a specialised nerve block technique, patients can now undergo hand and wrist surgery at Minehead Community Hospital.
This approach enhances convenience for patients, reduces waiting times, and the risk of cancellations due to higher priority emergency operations๐

Thanks to a kind donation from Minehead Hospitalโs League of Friends, the theatres have been fitted with a new laminar airflow system!
More advanced equipment means our teams can perform more complex surgeries - so more patients can be cared for in their local hospital ๐
